Also, very strangely, though things worked (sort of (:-/) yesterday, when I tried to run SMPlayer today it crashed on me too! Symptom was that the program would start, but no window would appear. Eventually it went into the debugger. I deleted the relevant settings folder and it started working again. Not very well though -- the DVD I tried today was freezing and hooting at me again.
